Hyper-Low Sodium Umami Flavor HVP.
Empowering global food scientists to address the modern food industry's most critical challenge — a B2B allergen-free, clean-label plant protein powder designed to replace synthetic MSG while unlocking a 90%+ reduction in total raw material sodium contribution.
Pro Mino's corn-based HVP delivers a clean, allergen-free protein matrix engineered for the modern clean-label food manufacturing environment.
The EU enforces the strictest Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) labeling laws. Any food containing more than 0,9% GMO material must carry a clear modifier on the front label. A verified GMO-free supply chain ensures that your ingredient acts as a passport, rather than a roadblock, for international customs and strict corporate compliance officers.
The industry "MSG" anxiety remains a significant driver in retail spaces. Consumers scanning ingredient lists are actively avoiding MSG, associating it with ultra-processed foods. Pro Mino's 30% protein HVP product delivers natural glutamic acid bound within a complex matrix of amino acids and peptides, allowing food manufacturers to print "No Added MSG" or "100% Natural Flavor Enhancer" on their boxes.
Utilizing a corn base free from soy and gluten allows food brands to achieve a highly coveted "Clean Label/Free From" declaration. It eliminates the risk of cross-contamination in production facilities, allowing manufacturers to market their soups, spices and quick foods to the rapidly growing celiac, gluten-sensitive and allergen-avoidant consumer demographics.
A low sodium content is an exceptional asset. It allows corporate R&D chefs to use HVP at functional levels — to build mouthfeel and protein structure — without blowing past strict regional sodium targets. Because natural Umami compounds trigger taste receptors that perceive saltiness more intensely, a low-sodium HVP allows a brand to reduce actual added salt by 15%–25% while keeping the consumer's taste perception completely identical.

Designed for dynamic solubility, masking profiles, deep savory and Umami flavor kinetics.
Effectively masks bitter, green off notes derived from pea and soy protein isolates, imparting structural, authentic umami mouthfeel. Deepens the natural meaty essence of processed sausages, patties, cured meats and dried delicacies.
Delivers continuous operational thermal stability and reliable solubility index markers across extreme retort heating profiles. Provides a savory punch and rounded mouthfeel in dry packet soups, wet broths and seasoning cubes.
Protects and sustains savory core flavor stability during complex commercial freezing, chilling, and industrial preparation cycles.
Acts as an optimal binding particulate base for high-adhesion topical seasonings, eliminating reliance on synthetic flavor crystals. Acts as a natural, healthy alternative to synthetic MSG on crisps, puffed grains and extruded snacks.
Enriches veterinary and domestic formulations with completely clean, plant-based palatability enhancement profiles. Substantially elevates flavor palatability in dry kibbles and moisture-dense wet foods.
Derived entirely from sustainable South African corn/maize processing streams to satisfy strict global Scope 3 carbon mandates. Boosts savory complexity and replicates authentic meat profiles in vegan/vegetarian meals.
Cuts through the natural sweetness of dairy ingredients, balancing cream sauces, vegetarian soups, and cheese-flavored meat alternatives.
Heavy vegan protein bases (like soy, pea, or faba bean) often carry bitter, earthy, or “beany” notes. HVP works exceptionally well at masking these off-flavors, rounding out the palate so the product tastes like food, not a science experiment.
